Today’s readings explore powerful insights from Augustine and Aquinas. In Augustine's Confessions (Chapter IX), we encounter a dramatic story where Alypius, falsely accused of theft, is miraculously delivered—an event that teaches him the importance of careful judgment and prepares him for future ministry. From Thomas Aquinas (Summa Theologica, Part I, Question 44, Article 1), we address a foundational theological question: Why must everything apart from God be created by Him? Aquinas clearly explains why God alone exists by necessity, and why all else depends entirely on Him for existence. Join us for these compelling reflections on divine providence and creation!
